for the most part, true. Off the top of my head, lion's mane nudibranchs (a coldwater species, melibe leonina) are filter feeders; the only exception to the rule that I know of. random trivia: they...

that's correct; the lettuce "nudibranch" is an opisthobranch, but not a nudibranch; it is a sacoglossan. unfortunately it will not likely rid you of any algae problems. They derive their energy in...

bad idea. even tidepool species should be kept in a cooled tank. If you can't afford to set up a coldwater tank or just don't have the time, then you can't keep them. You wouldn't keep a tang in a...

if heat ever became a problem for my old bc8, i would just leave the feeding lid open. If things become drastic, just point a fan into the open feeding lid; it'll look ugly, but it'll work.
